Mike Gonzalez, a senior fellow in the Douglas and Sarah Allison Center for Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation, was interviews for the article.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Gonzalez reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>It\u2019s best to think of her (Alicia Garza) as somebody who sits a top an expansive global revolutionary network. She founded the main Black Lives Matter organization. In fact, she came up with the slogan.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>The other two women who co-founded Black Lives Matter are Patrisse Cullors and Opal Tometi. All three of them are committed Marxists, anti-capitalist. Alicia Garza has said many times that she wants to smash capitalism, that one cannot reach liberation in capitalism.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>And one of the adventures that she has is the Black Futures Lab. The Black Futures Lab is a fiscally sponsored project of the Chinese Progressive Association of San Francisco.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>That is an outfit that was created in 1972 at the height of the Cultural Revolution by a \u2026 paramilitary group called I Wor Kuen. I Wor Kuen was a Maoist outfit, created the Chinese Progressive Association in San Francisco. And from the start, the Chinese Progressive Association promoted the thoughts of Mao and the ideas of China\u2019s revolution and the Cultural Revolution.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>&#8230;if you click on the button of the Black Futures Lab, it tells you that the Black Futures Lab is a fiscally sponsored project of the CPA San Francisco.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>A lot of the Black Lives Matter organizations do this. They\u2019re fiscally sponsored projects of other groups that affords the Black Lives Matter organization a great deal of flexibility in not having to disclose how they spend their money. That\u2019s at least what the critics say.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>But the connections between Garza and the people who run the CPA San Francisco are stronger than that. Garza, for example, spoke at a LeftRoots meeting in 2015. I think she\u2019s a member also of LeftRoots, I\u2019ll have to double check that. And Pam Tau Lee, one of the founders of CPA San Francisco is also a member of LeftRoots.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>&#8230;the Black Futures Lab does say it on its website, that it partners up with Black Lives Matter. Everything under Alicia Garza is the same, as I said, they\u2019re ventures of the same empire. And the Black Futures Lab, I believe, is kind of a lobbying arm of the whole entire thing.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Black Lives Matter, I\u2019m talking about the organizations\u2014obviously, nobody disagrees with the sentiment\u2014I\u2019m talking about the Black Lives Matter Global Network partners with the Movement for Black Lives, partners with the Black Futures Lab, they all crisscross and coordinate their moves. And the Black Futures Lab says that on its website, that it helps the Black Lives Matter organization.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Please follow the link to read the rest of the article. Black lives do matter, but the organization by that name is not a positive influence on our political debate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Daily Signal posted an article today about the connection between Alicia Garza, one of three founders of the Black Lives Matter organization, and the left-wing San Francisco group known to carry water for China: the Chinese Progressive Association.
